Law's sex scene with Rachel Weisz in Enemy at the Gates is one of the weirdest / most surreal things I've ever seen on film

Any particular reason why you left out their more recent films - haven't seen them or didn't like them?

Side effects with Law was okay, as was The Impossible with McGregor.


And wtf order66, that guy will never look ugly!
Although he could consider wearing a toupee.

I think Sherlock Holmes was the last one I saw with Law. It was pretty good. I had actually forgotten about that one.

I've actually never seen Big Fish. McGregor's best in my opinion is either Nightwatch or Ghost Writer. His worst is probably the Island.

I like both but several years ago I was OBSESSED with Ewan McGregor.

You left out several cool Ewan McGregor films (ugh on Life Less Ordinary - I hated that movie)
Shallow Grave
Eye of the Beholder
Moulin Rouge!!
Mrs. Potter
Nora
The Pillow Book

The Criterion Blu-ray of Shallow Grave is hands down the greatest HD film I have ever watched. It's worth watching it just to see how amazing something can look if they take the time to do it right.

enemy at the gates: it bugs me that they cast a handsome guy like Law when the guy he played looked like a typical Soviet peasant guy. the cast was too good-looking all over. it's a fucking war movie people!

Hey, the bit where Fiennes stands up and gets his head blown off is pretty good.
